Pros

Health insurance, five weeks vacation, work-family balance, opportunity to work from home

Cons

No leadership, pompous arrogance of mid-managers and senior analysts, green and inexperienced executive management, buddy system, disconnect between departments and toxic environment in general, generations of families working together in the same offices and often on the same teams.

Pros

Many great people Excellent knowledge and experience Great pension and industry standard benefits Client focus on the front line

Cons

Increasingly political Strategic confusion - one restructure after another and blind faith in management consultants Not listening to feedback from existing staff Treating loyal employees poorly Failing to manage talent No clear people planning and your experience will depend entirely on your line manager Lack of consistency in line management standards Too many middle and senior managers playing the game and unwilling to rock the boat

Pros

relative to peer companies none.

Cons

The company morale is terrible, senior execs are just drones following the company script - all yes men and woman and questioning anything is now a fireable offence or at least career suicide. It used to be the people but so many have now left and jobs replaced in India - now any one competent is doing the jobs of three people. The most basic possible paternity/maternity leave which is pretty archaic. terrible bonuses, non existent incentives to stay.
